Let us look at the applications of IoT
Entertainment
Augmented reality is a rapidly developing field of technology in which sensors and other Internet of Things-based elements are used to incorporate enhanced virtual features into a real-world environment. Augmented reality via IoT imaging is gaining traction in areas such as online retail, but it is most commonly used in entertainment and gaming today.
• Pokemon Go, a mobile game in which users can virtually capture Pokemon characters at real-world locations and interact with other players at physical hubs.
• The NFL and Nickelodeon collaborated to display animated stats and elements across the field during a live game.
Worker Safety Monitoring
Worker safety can be a significant corporate liability, particularly in labor-intensive industries such as manufacturing, construction, and mining.
Companies can use an IoT solution to collect on-site workplace data to determine whether an environment or a worker action could result in injury and respond to and prevent incidents.
Even in less traditional workplace settings, such as an NFL football stadium, IoT safety sensors provide real-time data to team leaders, allowing them to track environmental factors and protect players from potentially hazardous situations. Sensors installed in worker equipment and sensors installed in wearable technology are the two most common types of worker safety monitoring.
